Some Frequently Asked Questions about the Online class sections of the New Media Course.
How many times do I have to come into school for this class?
You MUST come into school at least once, for the final examination. It is recommended that you meet with your professor more than that, especially when we start collaborating on our class wiki. Your professor is available to you by appointment.
How can I find what readings, homeworks, etc. are assigned for this class, and their due dates?
In the course materials section, find your Prof's Dynamic Course Outline. Make sure it's the one for your own section. You will find the outline organized by week, with links to lecture notes, assigned readings, and homeworks due that week.
I don't understand the weekly "Due Date." When are Assignments actually due?
The semester is organized into "weeks" in the Dynamic Course Outline, each week ending with a Friday date. This is just for convenience. Homework is not necessarily due "Friday" but, rather, to be completed (latest) sometime during the week ending on that Friday. Don't even try to leave homework assignments undone until Friday, or you will not get everything finished. If anything, get ahead of the calendar by doing some work due later in the semester.
Can I work at my own pace?
All the assignments have due dates. Those are final dates. You are free to "work ahead" and complete your assignments early.
What is the format of the exam?
Short answer questions. It will take about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. If you have done the work for the class, the questions on the final exam will not be a surprise to you.
How can I get an A in this class?
Do all the assignments, do them on time, keep in touch with your Prof.
When are assignments due?
Your assignments are due by the end of the week in which they are listed in your Dynamic Course Outline.
Are there some assignments that may be submitted late?
No. All assignments must be submitted at or before the due date.
